Project description:Treponema pallidum subspecies pallidum (T. pallidum) infection induces significant immune responses, resulting in tissue damage. Gene expression plays an essential role in regulating the progression of syphilis infection. However, little is known about the regulatory role of miRNAs in the immune response to T. pallidum infection. Here, we analyze the differential expression of miRNAs in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) between secondary syphilis (SS) patients and healthy controls and study the correlation between miRNAs expression and clinical features with bioinformatics.
Project description:We isolated an efficient doxycycline degrading strain Chryseobacterium sp. WX1. To investigate gene expression patterns during doxycyclinedegradation by strain WX1, we conducted a comparative transcriptomic analysis using cultures of strain WX1 with and without doxycycline addition. The RNA-Seq data revealed that 90.44-96.56% of the reads mapped to the genome of Chryseobacterium sp. WX1 across all samples. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) analysis (|log2FC| >2; p < 0.01) showed that 693 genes were significantly up-regulated and 592 genes were significantly down-regulated.
Project description:In this study, we isolated a potent doxycycline-degrading bacterium, Chryseobacterium sp. WX1, from environmental samples. To elucidate the molecular mechanisms underlying doxycycline degradation by strain WX1, we assessed and interpreted the proteomic profiles of Chryseobacterium sp. WX1 under conditions both with and without doxycycline exposure.
